Each student will present a gallery talk about their work starting at 6 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

Kyle Spear created four wood and steel sculptures for the exhibition. His pieces focus on containment, compression and the relationship of form and materials.

Whitney Ward’s multi-media work includes two-dimensional images and video, which serve as a visual representation of her emotional process, and the progress she has experienced over time.
